The Score with Edmund Stone
Spoofs
Saturday, February 28 | 4pm
This week on The Score Edmund Stone has some film foolery with Spoofs, movies that are parodies, and a lot of fun. You’ll hear music from parodies of genres as disparate as westerns, A Million Ways to Die in the West; horror, Scary Movie; and science fiction with Galaxy Quest. Next time on The Score.
Stars of Black Cinema
Sunday, March 1 | 4pm
Join Edmund Stone as he honors Black History Month with a look at contemporary Black Cinema, a rich, vital tradition of films made by, for and about Black people. From legends Sidney Poitier in Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner and Samuel L. Jackson’s versatility in The Incredibles to Cynthia Erivo’s tour-de-force singing and acting in Wicked and Idris Elba’s powerful performance in Beasts of No Nation, it’s a look and a listen to some of the finest actors in the world. This Sunday on The Score.
Metropolitan Opera
Berlioz: The Trojans (Part 1)
Saturday, February 28 | 10am
Berlioz’s rarely-performed classical epic, from the Met Opera stage!
